Jon Hole Joins Avolites as Product Manager

Text Avolites

The Avolites team in London expands with the appointment of Jon Hole as Product Manager, bringing with him 15 years of industry experience. Jon’s passion for the industry was first sparked whilst working at the Northcott Theatre in Exeter, UK, as a teenager, prompting him to go on to study stage management and technical theatre at the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama. Jon’s career has spanned roles within technical support, training, marketing and product management over the years.

Avolites MD Paul Wong commented, “We are thrilled to have Jon onboard. Jon’s skillset, knowledge and experience are a perfect complement to the team in our development and drive to innovate and accelerate our lighting and video control solutions.”
Jon is especially fired up about Avolites’ creative control vision and product roadmap, and its proprietary Synergy software, recognising the importance and relevance of video in most events, presentations and live performances, and the need for full creative control.
“I’m excited about Avolites’ product roadmap which will strengthen its value proposition,” he commented, adding that he also sees the current console portfolio, with the addition of the new Diamond 7 (D7), offering lighting and visual designers “powerful, super-quick and user-friendly tools to create plenty of magic onstage.”

Titan software is all about speed and simplicity and getting a light on and a show in the console even in the tightest timeframes, and Jon notes that more designer-led features like Key Frame Shapes will continue to make future Avo products even more hands on and interactive.

Jon believes that Avolites will additionally benefit in multiple ways from now being ‘A Robe Business’ including independent ownership and international resources. His role at Avolites will be focusing on delivering both what customers want and what customers don’t yet realise they want, by collaborating closely with R&D, sales, marketing and of course, customers.
Jon’s first full week with Avolites was spent on the busy booth at the (Integrated Systems Europe (ISE) expo in Barcelona, somewhat of a ‘baptism of fire’ surrounded by the buzz and hubbub of a successful show, that looks to set the tone for the years ahead.
